Windows PowerShell command on Get-command Add-NetEventVmSwitch

NAME

Add-NetEventVmSwitch

SYNOPSIS

Adds a Hyper-V virtual switch as a filter on a provider.

SYNTAX

Add-NetEventVmSwitch [-Name] [-CimSession ] [-InformationAction {SilentlyContinue | Stop |

Continue | Inquire | Ignore | Suspend}] [-InformationVariable ] [-ThrottleLimit ]

[]

DESCRIPTION

The Add-NetEventVmSwitch cmdlet adds a Hyper-V virtual switch as a filter on a Remote Packet Capture provider. Use

this cmdlet multiple times to add multiple Hyper-V virtual switches. To get existing Hyper-V virtual switches, use

the Get-NetEventVmSwitch cmdlet.

The protocol stack uses multiple layers to transmit, receive, and process network traffic as packets. The provider logs network traffic as Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) events.

PARAMETERS

-CimSession []

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such

as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local

computer. Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-InformationAction []

Specifies how this cmdlet responds to an information event. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

-- SilentlyContinue

-- Stop

-- Continue

-- Inquire

-- Ignore

-- Suspend

Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-InformationVariable []

Specifies a variable in which to store an information event message. Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-Name

Specifies a name for the Hyper-V virtual switch.

Required? true Position? 1 Default value none

Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)

Accept wildcard characters? false

-ThrottleLimit []

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell? calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.

INPUTS

OUTPUTS

Example 1: Add a Hyper-V virtual switch on a provider

PS C:\>New-NetEventSession -Name "NESession01"

PS C:\> Add-NetEventPacketCaptureProvider -SessionName "NESession01"

PS C:\> Add-NetEventVMSwitch -Name "Network Adapter 2 - Virtual Switch"

This example adds a Hyper-V virtual switch as a filter on the Remote Packet Capture provider for a network

session. After you complete these commands to configure the network session, you can start and stop the event and

packet capture for the network session by using the Start-NetEventSession and Stop-NetEventSession cmdlets.

The first command uses the New-NetEventSession cmdlet to create a network session named NESession01.

The second command uses the Add-NetEventPacketCaptureProvider cmdlet to add a Remote Packet Capture provider for

the session named NESession01.

The third command adds a Hyper-V virtual switch as a filter on the Remote Packet Capture provider.
